The book is replete with relevant material but often pertaining to North America. It is a passionate work, but the passion often leads to some incoherence and repetition: more editing would have been welcome. She believes in the power of mass movements, but the election of a President who believes in unbridled capitalism and who mocks the evidence for climate change gives one little optimism. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Well researched and interesting in places, but over-hyped, over-long and unbalanced *by A***R on 8 October 2016* I'm sympathetic to the message Naomi Klein is putting across in this book - that action is needed on climate change that goes beyond pinning our hopes on a technological fix being found. I was hoping to come away from reading it able to cite compelling approaches to tackling the issue. But the book largely rehashes the same old solutions that the Left has been putting forward for years. That is fine, but my issue is with the opaque style they are presented in. For a start, the book is extremely long-winded (467 pages excluding end notes), repetitive in places, and with unnecessary diversions all over the place making it hard to follow a clear train of thought and tedious to read. The gimmicky chapter headings don't help. A more concise telling of the impressive research that's clearly gone into the book would have been much more impactful and compelling.Sadly, I doubt this book is going to change any minds. The evidence backing up claims is patchy. Some segments are well referenced, but others are more rant-like and unbalanced.The best this book can hope to achieve is to reignite the fire in the belly of those who already agree with its premise. Though even that is a push. It's so tedious to read I'm resenting it for stealing an enormous amount of time to extract the gems inside it.The book is a classic victim of over-hype. I find it difficult to believe that all those giving it a five star review have read more than a couple of chapters. My advice would be to save yourself a disappoint and look for a video where Naomi sets out her key points instead. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent where it sets its sights, but lacks scope *by S***L on 12 June 2016* Wherever Naomi Klein sets her sights, a wealth of information and progressive principles are revealed. Most notably, this is a book about the detrimental impacts of the extractivist ideology that comes as a package deal with the kind of deregulated free-market systems that Klein slams throughout the book.However, my main gripe with the book, and it's quite a big one, is that it completely skirts over the environmental impact of farming livestock. Considering that the farming of livestock leads to the consumption of an estimated 70% of all the worlds farmed land and, as such, a huge amount of water (15 k litres to every kg of beef), and considering the fact that an estimated 91% of all deforestation that has occurred thus far has occurred due to the need to clear land to house and feed livestock, I'd say that this was a monumental error on Klein's behalf. Had the rest of the text not been so thorough in its exposition, I would have rated this as 3 stars. I don't know if this was wilful or accidental ignorance, either way it's the major shortcoming of the book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/68119323-this-changes-everything-capitalism-vs-the-climate-by-klein-naomi](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/68119323-this-changes-everything-capitalism-vs-the-climate-by-klein-naomi) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
